"In this second part we button up the machine and test some of its functions."

SN 1797. According to them the original Moog Sonic Six's below SN 1300 or so had ARP diode filters as they weren't designed by Moog. When Moog took over they switched it to the classic Moog ladder filter. via Wikipedia: "The Sonic Six is the result of Bill Waytena, then the owner of synthesizer manufacturer Musonics, acquiring R.A. Moog Inc. Interested in the marketing opportunity afforded by the Moog name, Waytena acquired R.A. Moog Inc., moved the company to Buffalo, New York, and renamed it Moog/Musonics (which eventually was shortened to simply Moog Music). It was under this new brand that a new version of the Musonics Sonic V was released as the Moog Music Sonic Six.[2]"

"Vermona synthesizer produced in the GDR, was popular in the Soviet Union in the 80s. This fully analog synthesizer, with seeming simplicity, allows you to include several registers at the same time, which allows you to make the timbre richer and inaccessible to simple monophonic synthesizers with 2 voz, this is possible due to the nonstandard scheme of the wco generators + frequency frequency dividers, the same sawtooth wave Because of the generators, it consists of square waves and has a stepped form, it also has a very reliable system, it also has a moog filter, 1 envelope on the VCF and VCA, crossed on the VCF and VCA, LFO only with sinus wave also includes a delay function lfo. The sound is very clear, unusual, perfectly punches any mix, bass fat. The state of the synthesizer is perfect, all the nodes are in good condition."
